The best virtual and cloud environments for backup and replication is Veeam.
What captured our attention is the convenience of use of Veeam’s flexibility. It is compatible with almost any hardware so there are no limitations. The simplicity of the product setup and operation is outstanding. The fact that the premium platform's DR orchestration feature can be enabled was also especially noteworthy.

Offers detailed reports to users, and it is easy to maintain
What is our primary use case?
I use the solution in my company to monitor the backup status and to plan in areas like capacity planning, such as how much current backup utilization is used. The tool can maybe predict the future trend of the data groups and their growing size.
What is most valuable?
The solution's most valuable feature is that its reports are detailed compared to other tools. It can integrate with VMware, and it can see VMware's recent status while it can receive alerts for Veeam Backup. The tool can be highly integrated with VMware and other Veeam solutions. Reporting-wise, the product is good. You can choose any templates for your report from the solution's consolidated data.
What needs improvement?
The tool should add more hypervisors inside it, like Hyper-V or Nutanix since it is an area of concern in the solution currently.
I feel that the product's support team needs improvement.
I feel that there are some new features in the new version of the product, which is Veeam ONE 12.1, and it also has some anti-malware functionalities. I have not found the new features in the product to be useful because it has so many false positives. The product needs to be integrated with some antivirus solution so that its new features can be used in a better way.

I have been using Veeam ONE for three to four years. My company has a partnership with Veeam ONE.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
My company uses Arcserve and some products from China, like Vinchin. Acronis was also a solution that was used in my company in the past. So far, we found that Veeam ONE is quite good compared to other products. Veeam ONE is balanced in terms of its interface, backup design concepts, and backup infra.

The product's initial setup phase was quite straightforward.
One person can manage the product's installation phase.
The solution can be deployed in two to three hours. You just let it run with SQL and some other things. The installation process is quite straightforward. I just follow the installation steps, and it can be done easily.

I have seen some time-saving benefits from the use of the product in my country, up to 20 to 30 percent.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I consider that the product's price falls under the middle range category.
What other advice do I have?
The solution is easy to maintain, but so far, we didn't have any major issues with the tool.
Actually, in our organization, we didn't go for any compliance parts with the tool. For our customers, we went for some audit purposes to meet some compliance requirements. Veeam ONE can generate some particular compliance report files from its users' available data.
I rate the tool a nine out of ten.
Veeam architect
Has valuable disaster recovery features and good technical support services
What is most valuable?
The platform's most valuable feature is continuous data protection. It is useful for data management and maintaining availability. It helps mitigate points of failure.
What needs improvement?
The product's initial setup process could be complex for application backup and database agent installations.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been working with Veeam Data Platform since 2015.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I rate the product stability a ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The product is highly scalable in a cloud environment, which I would rate as nine out of ten. However, in a local environment, its scalability is constrained by the existing infrastructure.
How are customer service and support?

How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup process's rating varies depending on specific requirements. For server backup, I rate it a ten. It can be more complex for application backup and database agents, so I rate it around seven. On average, I rate it eight or eight and a half.
It is deployed in both cloud and on-premises environments. A simple agent installation might take an hour, while a full server setup with all features could take up to a week.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I rate the pricing a five, depending on the application and environment.
What other advice do I have?
Veeam is highly effective in supporting disaster recovery. It provides detailed configuration options and generally performs better than Acronis.
The product's key features for managing data recovery include performance improvements and backup capabilities for various systems and virtual servers.
Its impact on operational costs and recovery time objectives depends on the defined policies, such as differential or full backups, and recovery time objectives.
AI in Veeam is still developing. I have seen some documentation but still need to engage with it fully.
I recommend it to others and rate it a ten.
Efficient for data protection and simple to use

Immutability is the most important aspect of data protection in terms of Veeam Data Platform. That could be one critical factor for us.
Data protection is the most valuable aspect.
What needs improvement?
We had one problem once with the multinet in the network, but it wasn't a big problem. It was a problem with the network itself. That is the only problem we have had.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using it for two years. We use the current application tool, the new one, that's the tool server that I use.
How are customer service and support?
I personally haven't requested any support, but my coworker has and says it's good.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I have also been using Veeam ONE for about two years to monitor traffic and jobs. So, mainly as a monitoring tool.
We use it to monitor everything. We don't have any other tool like it. We used to use vRealize Operations Manager, but we don't have that anymore. That's why we use Veeam ONE. It's easy to view all the infrastructure.
How was the initial setup?
The infrastructure we have is simple.
So, the initial setup is very easy as our environment isn't complicated.
We finished the deployment in about three weeks. We didn't deploy the solution solely for the strategy part. It took us three weeks because it wasn't a priority for us when we deployed the solution. So, the deployment time could have been less.
We didn't have any problems with integration into our existing ecosystem.
In my opinion, maintenance is very simple. We don't have any problems with updates.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
It is not expensive.
What other advice do I have?
I would give it a ten out of ten because I haven't had any problems with maintenance. It's very simple and our environment is also very simple.
So for simple use, it's a very good tool and fulfills all our needs.
I highly recommend it.
